Maybe it’s just me but whenever I thought about exoskeletons in SciFi they were something you put on over your existing gear. I feel like these are just shoes with an ankle support feature. I would rename it. But it looks interesting.

Well the shoes go over your existing gear (socks). 😛 But also they don’t seem like a long-term integral part of the system anyway, rather just a way to avoid designing this to fit all shoes for now.

I can see that being really helpful for me, especially given that I DO have difficulty walking long distances, sometimes even relatively short distances – such as a just a city block or so.

The muscles that this device helps will atrophy as a result of not having to work as much. It is the same thing as getting less exercise. That being said, when you take them off, it will be harder to walk than it was before you started using them. I can only see this being helpful in someone that can’t exercise anymore, and as a last resort.

True. Maybe it would work on paraplegics whose muscles won’t work in the 1st place.

No, it’s not bypassing the muscle. It’s distributing load.

Little by little, we are letting AI (+ robotics) do everything for us. Even walking. Not good. But this could perhaps be useful to someone that really really needs it, like an overweight senior.

I have arthritis in both my ankles, this would be cool to try, but outta my price range on a disability income. $4500 is about 1/3 of my annual income on disability.
